EDITORS COMMENTS
On the Way to 'Sjöfallet' (The Great Lake Falls)," painted by Swedish artist Helmer Osslund in 1935, captures the breathtaking beauty and raw power of nature in the far north of Sweden. This exquisite tempera painting on paper transports us to Stora Sjöfallet National Park, located in Norrbotten County near the Arctic Circle. The UNESCO World Heritage Site is renowned for its dramatic waterfalls, pristine lakes, and rugged mountains. Osslund masterfully portrays the winding mountain road leading us deeper into the wilderness. The road, barely visible against the undulating terrain, is a testament to the determination and resilience of those who dared to explore this remote and untamed land. The sky above is a canvas of ever-changing colors, from the soft pinks and oranges of the sunrise to the deep blues and purples of the twilight. The mountains in the background are a formidable presence, their snow-capped peaks piercing the heavens. The waterfalls cascade down the cliffs, their powerful force creating a mist that shrouds the landscape in a fine spray. The painting invites us to imagine the sound of the rushing water, the crisp mountain air, and the sense of awe and wonder that comes from witnessing such a magnificent natural wonder. Helmer Osslund's 'On the Way to 'Sjöfallet' is a testament to the enduring allure of the natural world and the artist's ability to capture its essence. This painting is a cherished part of Sweden's cultural heritage, and can be found in the collections of the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving the beauty and wonder of the natural world for future generations to enjoy.
